Nobody has read a single word of this book. Following the hands it passed through, the signature erased from its first page and the date of its parchment shows how far the case has been carried and where it stops. Decipherments have been announced many times; none has been accepted.
Voynich manuscriptThe Voynich scriptRadiocarbon datingWilfrid Voynich+5In December 1872 a ship was found alone in the mid Atlantic, still under sail. She was seaworthy and her cargo was aboard; her people were not. Following the ship that found her, the port where the hearing was held, the cargo she carried and the missing boat separates what was recorded from what was added later.

Only a century after it was found, once there was a way to look inside, did it become clear that the device computed the positions of the heavens and the timing of eclipses. Who built it is still unanswered.

The story that she carried gold sent related shares soaring twice, in 2000 and in 2018. In 2018 the Shinil Group said it had found her, advertised 200 tonnes of gold worth 150 trillion won aboard and sold a coin on the strength of it. The courts sent its officers to prison for a fraud that raised about 8.9 billion won. No evidence that the ship carried gold has ever appeared.

No one was caught, and the statute of limitations ran out in 2014. In 2019 a former gang member told the makers of SBS's Unanswered Questions that he had been involved, and after the broadcast in June 2020 the police reopened the case. The first court acquitted him, the appeal court gave him twelve years, and after the Supreme Court sent the case back he was acquitted again. Who killed the lawyer, and why, is still unknown.

As investigators closed in, he fled to China by boat in December 2008. In December 2011 came word that he had died in China, with a video of the funeral, but his cremated remains yielded no DNA, and sightings kept being reported. In 2016 prosecutors concluded after a fresh investigation that he was dead. Along the way, prosecution and police officials who took money from the organisation were also arrested and charged.
Cho Hee-palThe medical-equipment rental scheme840 billion won lostSmuggled out from Taean+9On 21 December 2001, in the underground car park of a Kookmin Bank branch in Dunsan-dong, Daejeon, two men seized a bag holding 300 million won in cash and shot dead a bank employee. The gun had been taken from a patrolling police officer two months earlier. Three men in their twenties arrested the next year were released for lack of evidence, and the case went cold. In 2017 DNA was recovered from a mask and a handkerchief in the getaway car, and in 2022 police arrested two men. In December 2023 the Supreme Court upheld life sentences for both.

He told the bank staff a bomb had been planted in it, and once they had backed away he drove off with the car and the 294,307,500 yen inside: the bonuses for Toshiba's Fuchū factory. He left 124 items behind and some 170,000 police officers worked the case, yet no one was ever charged. The statute of limitations ran out in 1975 and the case remains unsolved.
